Defense Biometric Identification Systems (Dbids) For Installation Access

Any new contractor, vendor or supplier requesting base access AFTER 31 May 2017 will be required to obtain a DBIDS credential.

NCACS credentials will no longer be issued. Only DBIDS credentials will be issued to ALL contractors, vendors and suppliers seeking base access AFTER 14 August 2017.

Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) increases installation security and communications by receiving frequent database updates on changes to personnel/credential status, law enforcement warrants, lost/stolen cards, and force protection conditions. The system provides a continuous vetting anytime the DBIDS card is scanned at an installation entry point.

If you currently have a Navy Commercial Access Control System (NCACS) card, the following is required to get a DBIDS credential:

• Present your NCACS Card and a completed copy of the SECNAV FORM 5512/1 to the base Visitor Control Center representative.

• The VCC will pull up your information in the computer, ensuring all information is current and correct.

• Once your information is validated, a temporary DBIDS credential is provided.

• Your temporary credential will have an expiration date, prior to which you will need to obtain your permanent DBIDS credential (~ 90 days).

• For each additional U.S. Navy installation to which you need access, the first time you visit you only need to bring your

DBIDS credential and statement of purpose for base access when arriving at the Visitor Control Center.

• The representative will enter base access authorization and then you may proceed to work.

If you do NOT have an NCACS Card, the following is required to obtain a DBIDS credential:

• Present a letter or official document from my government sponsoring organization that provides the purpose for your access.

• Present valid identification, such as a passport or Real ID Act-compliant state driver's license.

• Present a completed copy of the SECNAV 5512/1 form to obtain your background check.

• Upon completion of the background check, the Visitor Control Center representative will complete the DBIDS enrollment process, which includes your photo, finger prints, base restrictions, and several other assessments; after all this is done, you will be provided with your new DBIDS credential.

• You may now proceed to work.

FOR ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS ABOUT OBTAINING A DBIDS CARD, CONTACT YOUR LOCAL BASE VISITOR

CONTROL CENTER. INFORMATION IS ALSO PROVIDED AT: www.cnic.navy.mil/om/dbids.html

One-Day Passes. Participation in the DBIDS is not mandatory, and if the Contractor chooses to not participate, the Contractor's personnel will have to obtain daily passes, be subject to daily mandatory vehicle inspection, and will have limited access to the installation. The Government will not be responsible for any cost or lost time associated with obtaining daily passes or added vehicle inspections incurred by non-participants in the DBIDS.

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL SERVICES (NOV 2021)

Commercial Items is applicable to this procurement. The Government will award a contract resulting from this Request for Quotation

(RFQ) to the responsible quoter whose quotation conforms to the RFQ and represents the best value to the Government, price and other factors considered.

The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotations:

1. Technical Capability;

2. Price

Technical acceptability will be determined by reviewing the technical certifications submitted for each item to ensure that all of the technical requirements identified are met. Technical acceptability will be defined as follows:

Technical Evaluation Ratings

Rating Description

Acceptable Quote meets all of the requirements identified.

Unacceptable Quote does not meet all of the requirements identified.

Contractors who fail to possess acceptable technical capability will not be considered for award and the other elements of their quotation will not be evaluated.

Price:

The estimated amount for each line item will be added together to determine the total estimated price, which will become the evaluated price.

The vendor’s proposed price will be evaluated on the basis of price reasonableness. All prices must be considered fair and reasonable as determined by the Government. Price quote shall be held firm and valid for sixty (60) days.

The completion and submission of the above items will constitute a quote and will be considered the vendor’s unconditional assent to the terms and conditions of this Solicitation and any attachments and/or exhibits.

Failure to provide all of these documents by the required date and time may preclude a quotation from award consideration at the discretion of the Government.

NOTE: Quotations determined to be technically unacceptable shall not be further evaluated for award. Of the technically acceptable quotations, the Government reserves the right to award to other than lowest price based upon a selection determined to be the best value to the Government, price and other factors considered.

Although price is considered lesser in importance relative to delivery, it has the potential to become more significant during the evaluation process. The importance of price will increase as the degree of equity in a respondent’s non-cost quotations rise. The importance of price will also increase when a quotation’s price is so significantly high as to diminish the value to the Government that might have been gained under the other aspects of the quotation. If at any point in the evaluation all respondents are determined to have submitted equal or generally, equivalent non-cost quotations, price may become the factor in determining the contractor selected for
